Retro Game Master delayed until October 2nd

Although the DVD was supposed to be released in September, the Retro Game Master Game Center CX Collection was delayed to October 2nd which is two weeks away. The only reason why it's delayed until then is because Discotek Media literally "underestimated its demand" and are making more copies for its new release date.

This is great news to hear because if you recall Discotek Media said they would release more seasons of Game Center CX on DVD only if a lot of people bought this particular collection. As you may remember this DVD set is the Kotaku run of Retro Game Master. Are g1s excited to hear more copies are being made of this DVD set?

See i could never watch the kotaku run because i'm in the uk which kotaku do no like for some reason. but i never knew that they dubbed it. that sounds like a terrible idea. one of the best things about the show is Arino's reactions and comments about the game. if you dub it you lose the authenticity of those reactions.

so on that note i agree with you in wondering if there is a subtitled version. cause if there is then i will buy one as well (hoping that it works on my laptop or PS3)

That's what I hope for as well, the only reviews I've seen were fan reviews on youtube but not that much of them. This game is a Hidden Gem...well at least in America anyway, I bought my copy of the game during the early beginning of the Summer and I had a blast.

That would be the hope. I just recently found about the game from watching GCCX. I had read somewhere that XSeed was not looking at porting the second one because the first didn't sell very well, but I can't recall ever seeing any reviews or ads for it. Good DS/Wii games tend be hard to find on your own behind all the shovelware. But perhaps if the show does well on dvd here they'll take a second look.

It's a popular Japanese Game Show were host Shinya Arino plays although mostly Retro Games but also plays sometimes a Modern game to try and complete it. Their's several segments in the show(which the first English DVD set will remove I think for licensing agreements I don't remember) where Arino goes to Game Centers(Arcades) and various other places that has Arcades within a place. Arino from time to time has interviews with various members at a Game Company and has had two if I recall correctly specials were Arino had went to America and in one had played the NES Version of Robocop .
